This R21 Exploratory/Developmental Grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) supports research into lymphatic vessel physiology and pathophysiology. Its primary aim is to understand lymphatics’ role in health and disease within the digestive, cardiovascular, and pulmonary systems. This includes investigating factors controlling local lymphatic functional anatomy and physiology, and how alterations affect organ function. The grant also covers studies on resolving thromboembolic events and inflammation related to these diseases. Proposals with a major focus solely on immune mechanisms are not responsive. This opportunity seeks to advance crucial knowledge on lymphatic contributions to systemic health.

| Description: | This FOA is to encourage Exploratory/Developmental Grant (R21) applications for research into aspects of lymphatic vessel physiology and pathophysiology related to health and disease of digestive, cardiovascular and pulmonary system organs and resolution of thromboembolic events, and inflammation and immune responses as they relate to these diseases. However, studies with the major focus on immune mechanisms will not be considered responsive. Studies to understand the factors that control local lymphatic vessel functional anatomy and physiology during health or disease in these organs and systems, and the mechanisms by which alterations of lymphatic vessel function affect organ function, are of interest. |
